** Canadian Adventures **
This is the 30 January 2005 edition of this
page and shows the breakdown of my travelogue into
its various chapters - thus:-
[Although this started as a "DeskTop Publication" (DTP), bear
in mind that it is now progressing, like ALL my other travelogues, ONLY in the 'electronic' version!]
Preface (including my schedule)
- The long haul to the start
- Robyn takes us to the Rockies
- The delights of Banff
- Sogginess Continued - Lake Louise
- Major Highlight - Athabasca Glacier
- Jasper & Whistler Mountain
- Return to the Coast
- Vancouver
- Chemainus, Butchart Gardens & Victoria
- Butchart was even beautiful on a RAINY DAY!!:-



Chemainus was "The little town that did!"
[ You may well ask, "Did what?"
The little town, tired of having no recognisable
virtues, REALLY produced the world's best collection of GIANT
artwork around town. Here's just three of very many.]



- Seattle and the Boeing Company
- Toronto & Niagara
----------------------------------------------------------------
DATES & OVERVIEW OF JOURNEY
I departed from Malvern on 3rd August 1995 and went via Seattle, NW of the USA,
across into SW Canada - starting the ROCKIES in Banff on 6/7 August, exitting on
the 10th Aug from
the Rockies at Jasper before making my way westwards via Mt Robson, Kamloops,
Vancouver & Victoria.
From there, it was back to beautiful Seattle - sightseeing there and
visiting the Boeing Company again!! I flew back to the UK on the 18th August.
PROTOTYPE 'BOOK' FIRST
This, like "An Arctic Adventure", was being produced as a
prototype book. The transference to hard copy from the Word Processor was
abandoned at the 10% mark -and this electronic version was started!
OTHER 'BOOKS' & 'TRAVELOGUES' (and future of this one!!)
Likewise the
"WINTER TALES" , "FABULOUS RUSSIA",
"WITH THE LAPPS OF THE GODS", "MOROCCO BOUND", "PERU, IN THE STEPS OF VON DANIKEN",
"ICELANDIC DREAMS", "MADNESS IN EGYPT",
"CHINESE EXPERIENCES", "ALASKA -2002" and the "ANTARCTIC ADVENTURE (2002)"
are well underway!!
.
The 'publication' and SALES aspects of "AN ARCTIC ADVENTURE" have been taking very little time recently,
- all that was necessary was to await the quarterly
arrivals of the (small) cheques! UNFORTUNATELY, my PUBLISHER has gone into VOLUNTARY
LIQUIDATION and left over a thousand of us authors with problems. More about these
elsewhere!!
Continuation of all other 'books' is by means of their emergence into the public-domain
by way of their electronic WWW versions.
Another possibility was to extend the writings, links and
chapters in THIS travelogue to include the 1998 adventures in Canada
as well. The last item (see Chapter 11) has, already, been implemented!!
